Vine Ripened Tomato, Sweet Onion and Basil Salad

Make sure that the tomatoes are fresh vine-ripened tomatoes--they make all the difference in the world. A delicious and quick summer salad using fresh ingredients. For the garlic infused olive oil, I used the olive oil from Juenessa's Garlic-Infused Oil and Dipping Sauce.
